The Allied People’s Movement (APM) has said it has successfully uploaded the details of its presidential candidate, Governor Seyi Makinde and other candidates of the party for the 2027 general elections to the portal of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), in line with the commission’s timetable.
The National Publicity Secretary, Abubakar Yusuf, who spoke in an interview, boasted that the APM would win the presidential election and other positions in the 2027 general election.
Yusuf said the party is intensifying its broad-based engagement with Nigerians across the country especially those at the grassroots while ensuring the credibility and electoral acceptability of its candidates at all levels.
According to him, the engagement is yielding dividends, adding that the APM have been witnessing unprecedented surge of members and supporters since the entrance of Governor Makinde and his Bauchi State counterpart, Bala Mohammed who is also contesting a senatorial seat in Bauchi State.
“This marks another important milestone in our journey towards offering Nigerians a credible, competent and people-oriented alternative in the 2027 general elections.
“Our confidence is rooted in our continuous engagement with Nigerians and the array of very credible candidates that we are fielding at all levels.
“The APM is proud of the quality of leaders flying its flag across the country.
“Our candidates are men and women of proven character, integrity and outstanding performance in their respective fields.
“They embody the values of accountability, service and purposeful leadership that Nigerians have consistently demanded,” he stated.
The APM’s spokesperson expressed concern about the rising cost of living, widespread insecurity, unemployment and declining economic opportunities under the All Progressives Congress (APC) led Federal Government.
He stated that these concerns require practical solutions and compassionate leadership, which he said, only the APM could offer.
“The failures of the APC administration have made it clear that Nigeria needs a new direction anchored on competence, accountability and people-centred leadership which only the APM can offer Nigerians.
“With an APM-led administration and Makinde on the saddle, the welfare of Nigerians will be at the centre of government policies.
“We have a presidential candidate who not only has the commitment but also the leadership capacity and competence to secure our nation, rebuild the economy and ensure that every Nigerian enjoys the dividends of good governance.
“Our presidential candidate stands out as a leader whose record speaks for itself,” said, noting that his achievements have earned him national recognition as one of Nigeria’s most performing governors.
According to him, Governor Makinde has earned a reputation for prudent management of public resources and responsible governance, and said these principles would guide an APM government at the federal level.
“Beyond his impressive performance in office, Governor Makinde represents a new generation of leadership.
“He combines experience with relative youth, energy, vision and the capacity to unite Nigerians across political, ethnic and religious divides.
“We firmly believe he possesses the competence, character and courage required to reposition Nigeria and restore confidence in governance,” Yusuf added.
The party’s spokesperson also eulogised Governor Mohammed of Bauchi State who is the APM senatorial candidate.
“Governor Bala Mohammed, our senatorial candidate, brings a wealth of experience and leadership that will further strengthen the party’s vision of effective representation and national development.
“Together with our other candidates, he will play a vital role in advancing the APM’s mission of delivering responsible governance,” he said.
